I would agree with the no side because it makes a better arguement and because I personally don't agree with torture. The United States stands for freedom and torture is the complete opposite of freedom, as said in the article.
The no article states that with the tortue comes the fact that you have to break a person, and after that the person can never be the same again. In order to break a person you turn him into something subhuman, you enslave him. To me that is compeletly morally wrong.
Also, with torturing comes the fact that how can you know if the detainee is actually telling the truth? In order to stop the torture they would say anything, even if in reality they knew nothing. I expecially agree with this part after watching the movie Rendition; he lied just to get the torture to stop. And on top of that they had no proof to hold him or to torture him, there was no reason for this man to be there. The man broke down and said that he was a terrorist and he was treated better as a terrorist then as a prisoner.
